1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites function correctly, as well as to provide website operators with information about how the site is being used.
Cookies typically contain a name, a value, and an expiry date. They are stored in your browser's cookie storage and sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit. Not all cookies require your consent: essential cookies, which are strictly necessary for the website to operate, may be placed without prior agreement under EU law.
2. Our Approach to Cookies
Olaxis is designed with a minimal-data philosophy. We have deliberately chosen not to implement analytics platforms, advertising networks, or social media tracking scripts. As a result, the only cookies placed by this site are those strictly necessary for its basic operation — specifically, the cookie that records your consent preference for the cookie banner.
We do not use cookies to:
- Track your browsing behaviour across this site or other sites
- Build advertising profiles or deliver targeted advertisements
- Collect personal data beyond what you voluntarily provide via the contact form
- Analyse traffic patterns through third-party services such as Google Analytics
- Enable social media sharing buttons that track visitor data
3. Types of Cookies — Detailed Breakdown
The table below presents a comprehensive overview of all cookie categories, whether or not they are used on this site, and the reasoning behind each decision.
4. Your Consent and Choices
When you first visit Olaxis, a cookie consent banner is displayed at the bottom of the screen. You have the following options:
- Accept: Confirms your acknowledgment of our essential-only cookie use and dismisses the banner. A consent cookie is stored in your browser for 365 days.
- Decline: Dismisses the banner without affirmative consent. The site remains fully functional; no additional cookies beyond the consent decision itself are placed in either case.
- Learn More: Directs you to this page for full details before making a decision.
Because we use only essential cookies, declining does not restrict your access to any content on this site. You may also clear cookies at any time through your browser's privacy settings, which will cause the consent banner to reappear on your next visit.
5. Managing Cookies in Your Browser
All major browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings menus. You can choose to block all cookies, accept only first-party cookies, or delete existing cookies at any time. Please note that blocking essential cookies on any website may impair its basic functionality.
Guidance for managing cookies in common browsers:
- Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data
6. Legal Basis Under GDPR
The use of essential cookies on this site is based on legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR), as they are strictly necessary for the operation of the website. No consent is required for essential cookies under Recital 47 of the GDPR and the applicable provisions of Romanian Law No. 190/2018. The consent banner is provided as a transparency measure and to fulfil good-faith compliance obligations under the EU ePrivacy framework.
